Fencer, Olympic Silver Medal 2008 in Men's Team Sabre, In sharing his own Olympic story, Jason will talk about how we are all powerful writers constantly creating our own narratives with each decision we make. Olympic Spirit captures the moments of high drama and emotion experienced by Olympians and fans throughout the world. What is the truth behind that moment? How do you instill, train, learn, and motivate the champion within? What is the journey behind that moment? In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
